NEENAH, Wis., Aug. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Bedwetting is a condition that is more common than people think. In fact, nearly one-in-six children ages 4 - 12 in the United States wet the bed at night. As families plan for back-to-school activities, now is the time when moms and kids are extremely busy and anticipating what the year will bring. For moms of bedwetters, preparing for back-to-school can lead to anxiety for them and their children. Children might also begin to feel embarrassed or suffer from low self-esteem because of their condition, leading many to limit their participation in overnight activities such as sleepovers with friends.

To help ease stress and worry related to bedwetting, Kimberly-Clark's GoodNites® brand - a leading manufacturer of bedwetting management solutions - developed GoodNites* TRU-FIT*, machine-washable, cotton-blend underwear with disposable, absorbent inserts.
